Hello, friends. I am a long-time opiate user and therefore withdrawals from opioid use come to me quickly.
Now I have been taking tramadol for about two weeks for pain (hemorrhoid popped out; was bleeding; nasty stuff). Dosage was minimum 37.5mg and max 225mg per day. The damn thing has finally drained and the pain has subsided. I however have started experiencing withdrawals (slight). Last night I got all depressed and anxious then started having RLS when I tried to sleep. I took 37.5mg trama + 0.5mg alprazolam and slept like a baby.
Note: I have access to two doses of 0.5 alprazolam daily, as well as 30mg of mirtazapine.
So now, what's the game plan? The withdrawals are nowhere near serious yet and I wanna avoid the abyss while I still have the willpower. 37.5mg is already warding the withdrawals off completely for ~20 hours or so. Do I just take one 37.5mg tab for a couple of days, start halving it, and so on and so forth? Will this get me out smoothly? Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance, friends.
